About: I love animals and have always been blessed to be able to care for them forming special bonds by giving lots of love and care! I am usually home 24/7 five days a week minus a few errands and would love to take care of your pets when you need! I have a two story home with pet safety gates and will play with your pet, give them cuddles, walks and homemade treats if you approve:)
“Andrew made our Bear feel welcome right away by playing with him and introducing him to his small dog, Lucky Bear. He had lots of room to play inside and was given regular walks. Andrew sent us pictures throughout Bear’s visit and our boy looked very happy. I appreciate Andrew’s quick and thoughtful responses to my text messages. We’d definitely use him again for watching Bear.”
“5 stars. Left Siberian Husky that I recently adopted for a weekend. I was a bit nervous ... first because it would have been first time dog was left at another home and second because it was the first time I used Allison & Justin. They did a wonderful job, sent me pictures and updates and Sheila (Husky) was happy to be there AND happy to see me return. No problems and very well cared for. I'll definitely use them again!”
“I highly recommend Maryn as a rover for your pet! She was extremely responsive, sent updates with pictures, and even was flexible for pickup and drop off. I would absolutely use her again as a rover in the future. If you want peace of mind that your pet is in good hands while you’re gone, Maryn is your choice!”
“Desha took care of our 2 dogs for a couple of days while out of town and we are so thankful of the great care she provided! She was so communicative and sent photos of the happy pups at bedtime and morning. Her cute kids also gave the dogs a lot of affection and the dogs loved that! I hope to book with Desha again in the future!”
“Glenn was absolutely great with our puppy! He came to our house beforehand to make sure our Rolo girl would like him. My husband and I were photographing a wedding on a Friday and I was having serious dog mom guilt having to leave her all day. But Glenn put my mind at ease providing us with updates and pictures throughout the day. He and his partner were incredibly accommodating when it came to dropping her off and picking her up. I would absolutely recommend them to ANYONE looking for someone to take care of their pup.”
“Rachel took very good care of our 2 dogs. One of our dogs tends to get very anxious when we leave and Rachel was able to give him the extra attention and love he needed. I could def tell the difference between bringing them to a boarding facility and then this time to Rachel. So happy we found her!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Kayden! She took excellent care of our three furbabies and was so sweet, kind, and attentive to them. She kept us updated throughout their stay and even sent pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. It’s such a relief to find someone you can trust with your babies! We truly appreciate the love and care she showed them and will absolutely be using her again. Highly recommend Kayden to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family!”
“Mackenzie took wonderful care of our 1.5 year old mixed-breed dog, Luna, for more than two weeks. She sent us daily updates with gorgeous pictures. She exercised her regularly with walks and runs, and Luna always looked tired and happy in her pictures. As an added bonus, our young dog got even better at being a chill house dog, possibly thanks to Mackenzie’s two very sweet and calm dogs. I highly reccommend her services, I’m sure to seek her the next time I need a place for Luna. Thanks Mackenzie!”
“We have used Kristin several times now and she is truly the best. Our most recent trip ended with an emergency and she was so helpful with our pups while I was handling family needs. I never have to worry about my pups when they are there.”
About: I’ve had my own dog for 9 years, so I understand the daily care, attention, and love dogs need. I’m experienced with feeding routines, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m especially patient with puppies and understand their energy, training needs, and routines. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your pet plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays, and I can work around your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with access to an on-site dog park, so your pup will still get plenty of exercise and outdoor time. I make sure dogs get regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I also have two friendly dogs who are used to being around other pets. I can crate your dog if needed and will always follow your instructions closely to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel at home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Nicholasville
Angela and her family did a great job taking care of our kitten, Rory. They sent updates to the number we gave them regularly and so we didn't have to worry. It made our trip much less stressful. When we arrived all of Rory's things were ready to go and the litter box was clean, which we appreciated. We know kittens can be a handful so we were very pleased with Angela watching her.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
